Please sync request-tracker3.8 3.8.10-1 (universe) from Debian unstable (main)

Explanation of FeatureFreeze exception:

There's one intermediate release from what we have in Natty and the most
recent release, so an FFe is appropriate, but given that it's in Universe and
the most recent update fixes a hefty six CVES, I think we ought to have it in.

It's also made it to Debian Testing, so it's at least not obvoiusly RC buggy
and I tested it builds in Natty. I think the security updates outweigh any
regression risk potential.

Debdiff between Ubuntu and Debian attached for the record. It's not particularly reviewable and I don't propose anyone read the whole thing.
